The attitude is 1970’s punk rock, with Manda citing the Ramones and 999 as personal faves, but the songs invoke female-fronted legends of the 80’s such as the Go-Gos and the Bangles. In the present tense, their contemporaries include note worthies like the Briefs, Evil Beaver and the Epoxies. MANDA & THE MARBLES can even brag about having opened for the legendary Elvis Costello! The band also also appeared on the Fields and Streams compilation (alongside bands like the Yeah Yeah Yeahs) released by Kill Rock Stars in 2002.

Irresistible pop-punk music with sultry vocals is what MANDA & THE MARBLES have perfected, yet Manda refuses to be written off as a blonde airhead archetype. Her defiantly rugged bass lines punctuate the crunch of Joe A. Dama'ge’s guitars, and Mark Slak keeps everything tight behind a fury of drumsticks. This band isn’t just eye candy.

More Seduction is everything you could want out of a rock n’ roll album from any decade. It’s fast, catchy, smart and sexy- a disc that demands a start-to-finish sing along at every single spin. Amidst all the rock-culture referencing of the 70’s & 80’s, MANDA & THE MARBLES could be the band to name-drop for the new century!
